Cash and I headed to Nederland this morning to return a library book.  It was sprinkling a little, and we saw this amazing full rainbow.  The second-from-top photo is of a cattle farm along the way whose barns and houses are painted light pink, always giving me the sense of a perpetual sunrise/sunset.  The rainbow […]
